I've been having fun this afternoon taking advantage of the Black Friday sale on at the Silhouette store so look out for some Christmassy makes hot off the blades of my silhouette in the near future :)

But today's card takes me back to my beloved Aquatints :)

For the background of this one I used my new set 'Bright and Beautiful' - such vibrant colours!

The stamp and greeting are by Woodware and I added a variety of gems and stickles into the 'bubbles'. I didn't think it needed much else!!

Another Aquatint card from me today!
I love the way they work and am so pleased I have them in my life!

For this card I used the Pastel set and made a Purple, Blue and Green gradient. When it was dry I stamped a Woodware Christmas Tree and sentiment before adding lots of sparkle to the stars and blue gems in each corner.

Hi, I'm Gem, I live in the UK with my husband and our beautiful daughter who is almost 2 and getting more amazing by the day :)

I have been cardmaking for about 6 years now (gosh has it really been that long??!) and still enjoy it as much as ever. I have always been crafty and also do cross stitch, dressmaking, knitting, crochet and dabble in many other things!

I would love to join the team at Sketch Saturday to broaden my skill set as I haven't yet been on a purely Sketch Based Challenge Design Team, and would relish the opportunity to help inspire the challenge participants.

I am currently on the Design Team for Craftstyle Products, (making samples for their shows on Create and Craft TV) and in the past I have designed for a large variety of teams including Charisma Cardz, Sassy Stamps, Crafty Sentiments, CRAFT challenge, AUD sentiments, I Did it Creations Challenge, Gingerloft, Craft Your Passion, Digistamps 4 Joy, and One Stitch at a Time.

Here are a few pics of what I feel represent my best work and varied style.

Thanks for visiting me today :)
